Installing the Genmitsu Z5-1 fiber laser in Lightburn v1.7 BSL Laser

Learn from my experience installing the Genmitsu Z5-1 fiber laser in Lightburn v1.7.
Recently Lightburn has included the facility to use BSL-type fibre lasers in their software. As of version 1.7 is is supported as long as you have paid for the extra license. In this video, you see my first attempt at installing the driver for my Z5-1

I've just discovered that in the step where I change the "start marking" port setting from 2 to none, if you instead set the option from high to low the button on the handle of the laser will start the current job 👍

I have the z5-1 also. I was looking at the x-toolf1 and it's basically the same as minus the print size and the diode laser. X-Tool says the F1 can color engrave. Any suggestions how to do this with the z5-1?

Not something I've experimented with but it would be easier too run some tests using light burn. A combination of speed power and Hz I imagine. Is now on my to do list.
